Of course there's many more titles worth seeking out (a full list is available at the bottom of the page) but for now, lets take a look at the best five headed our way.

2K Games

ACTION: The February's releases are sure to entertain

XCOM 2

What is it - The sequal to the 2012 Game of the Year, award-winning strategy game, XCOM: Enemy Unknown. It's only out on PC this time around, which will make PS4, Xbox One and handheld gamers extremely jealous.

A bit like - While the XCOM sequal shares a lot in common with the first outing, plenty has changed. There's an intriging new story and plenty of extras which mean this isn't just a glorified expansion.

When is it out - 5th February 2016

Unravel

What is it - A physics-based puzzle game/platformer when you control Yarny, a tiny character made from a single thread of yarn, traversing natures many obstacles.

A bit like - Yarny has a bit of the same charming qualities shown by Sackboy in Little Big Planet, but for all intensive purposes it's pretty unique.

When is it out - 9th February 2016

Street Fighter V

What is it - The return of the king of Beat 'em up games with believe it or not an actual story to the game. Though for now Capcom are remaining tight lipped on exactly what it'll be.

A bit like - We'll go out on a limb and say it's a smidge like previous Street Fighter games. Only you know, better.

When is it out - 16th February 2016

Far Cry Primal

What is it - The next chapter in the Far Cry series, this time taking us back to 10,000 BC and three tribes vying for control of the massive open-world of Oros. That means no guns and lots of arrow action. Oh and lots of bloodthirsty animals.

A bit like - Far Cry 4, minus all the guns.

When is it out -23rd February 2016

Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare 2

What is it - Sequel to the underated PVZ third-person shooter, now loaded with more guns, new classes and abilties plus plenty of new modes for fans of the first game to experience. In short, bigger and better than the first in every way.

A bit like - The original bonkers Plants Vs Zombies game. Which as mentioned, is hugely underated and well worth the £5 it probably cost in your local retailer.

When is it out - 25th February 2016
